PAGE EIGHT Till] STEVENS MEETINGS LAST NIGHT ._.__ The Stevenscandidatu held a well attended meeting at Corran Ban last evening. The speakers concentrated their attention on the economic system which they claimed has broken down com- pletely in the proper distribution of wealth and put forward Mi‘. Stevens as the only man in a pos- ition to right the wrongs of the common people. The Chairman was Mr. Leonard Court. IIIB. ROBERT DUVAB The real issue in thrcampaign said M“. Duvar in openiru his ad- dress is whether or not the people of Canada are to be ruled over by a handful of men. These men control prices in almost every line. The old parties have long been making promises and breaking them when returned to power which is one thing for which the electors do not have to stand- Tlaere is no possibfe chance of Stevens and Bennett coming to- gether. The break was caused by a difference oi opinion, Mr. Stev- ens believing that the people should be put in possession of all the facts revealed by the Price Spreads Commission, and Mr. Bennett and other members of the Cabinet believing that the dirt brought up should be white- washed. MR. EARL INGS Dealing with tariffs, Mk Ings said the people should forget all about them. The two old parties have got the electors lined up either as Free ‘Iraders or Protec- tionists and are making it the big question at elections. It ‘u time the people got away from strict party lines and support a new party whether it is called Reconstruction or National. In spite of what some people are saying. Mr. Stevens has a con- structive platform, although it is never mentioned in The Guardian. Another fault of the present Government is that there are too many office seekers. Savings might be made by dping away with either the 10ml or Dominion De- partments of Agriculture. If this were done in every province $256.- 000000 could be saved, and as the total deficit in all the provinces is 3186000300 it would mean a ba.l- anced budget in every province. MR. J. W. DIXON Mr. Dixon began by giving a definition of the terms Economics, Politics, Wealth, Production, Dis- tribution and Exchange. Jlntering upon a description of the banking system, Mr. Dixon traced the progress of banks from the time money is collected for its charter to its dealings with the pubic. He went on to show that the banks made excessive profit and building up secret reserves by charging huge amounts year after year to depreciation. The tariff question should be solved by each country exchang- lng the goods which they can pro- duce most efficiently for the pro- ducts produced at an economic ad- vantage in the other country. .MR. ROBERT QONNOLLY Mr. Robert Connolly well known in Corran Ban was given an en_ thusiastic reception when he arose to_ speak. Mr. Connolly dwelt upon the sin- cerity of Mr. Stevens and his as- 'sociat/es. and was of the opinion that many of those present were in sympathy with platforms of DEATH S MCAViNN-Suddanly at Truro.

Ho next explained some of the difficulties which had been eo- ccuntered in getting the Stevens movement under way. He mention- ed a ‘case’ "where a man who promised his time to help the movement was told by his cm- ployer to give up Reconstruction or lose his lob. Jill. ARTHUR HUGHES m, Hughes linked the "condi- tions brought to light by the Price spreads Commission ‘with the agriculturists of Prince Edward Is- land. The low wages paid to_ the workers in the big cities directly affected the price of farm pro- ducts. Men love freedom. Farmers especially like to think they are their own bosses. but really they are hosed by the big interests at‘ every turn in their buyllla Ind selling. MR. BERNARD HUGHES The enthusiasm with which Re- construction is meeting in Char- lottetown is amazing and very gratifying said Mr. Hughes. There have been depressions be- fore this in Canada. The effect on the political history of the country is simply a. change of party at each depression. _ The Stevens Party has pledged itself to a National Housing scheme in co-operation with the banks. The money necessary for the scheme to be raised by long term bonds. The Stevens Party promises to open up avenues of employment in agriculture. mining, lumbering and manufacturing for every man and woman in Canada. Taxation will be dealt with by the wisest heads in the Party. The people are being taxed to death yet the clever men who control industry manage to escape. King was in power when the depression came down on us He is a clever man, an orator. a writer of .books, and a dreamer of dreams. Mr. Bennett is a more practical dreamer. Before Mr. knett left for Vancouver he spent two hours with Sir Herbert Holt getting his orders. the same as Mr. King did a day o!‘ two before. ‘ MR1 M. J. KELLY The old idea of political parties is rapidly disappearing.

MOUNT STEWART MEETING A fair attendance greeted the two Stevens candidates and their sup- porters at the meeting last evening in the spacious and up-to-date -Le- gion Hall at Mt.‘ Stewart. George Clark was appointed chair- man and introduced the compara- A . Mr.- tively unknown "speakers tn the audience. He said that he appreci- ated the new candidates coming to Mt. Stewart to discuss with the public political issues of the lay. The first speaker. Mr. Hampton of Moncton, said he always enjoyed a visit to the Island and he was glad to see so many so interested in the welfare of their country that they should tum out and hear the policy of the new party. He told how hard Mr. Stevens was working to bring this party into being, and that Mr. Stevens was really on the verge of a breakdown from the strenuous task which he set himself to accomplish. Ho ‘banked the press of Charlottetown for their un- biased reports of the first meetings and mentioned that some papers throughout Canada oflered many petty criticisms of certain matters which Mr. Stevens advocated. He then pointed out how the big interests in st. James Street, Mon- treal. and Bay Street, Toronto, held control of 90% oi the money of Canada and alleged they had con- trol of both the two old parties. In this connection he gave the details of a housing scheme under the Do- minion Housing Act, whereby he maintained that in the long run the whole thing was really controlled by the insurance and trust companies‘. l-fe set forth a. cabinet which would give the financial barons im- portant positions in the govern- ment. He, at this time, challenged Mr. Hepburn of Ontario teyxplaln his failure to implement the Mini- mum Wage Act which had been promised the electors of Ontario and went cn to say that an exam- ination of the books of the variom large industrial businesses through- out Canada such as.

PIEMZIEIPS EXPLANATION Premier Lea: “It is the hope and expectation of the Government that we will not require as great a length of time to get through our legislative work next March. Therefore in the interuts of econ- omy and_ to assist the House to balance the budget we are intro- duc" _ this measure. The legislative clerks have received from $700 to $900. and we can save two or three hundreddollars. We can save also in a law clerk. We have in the House now several of the most outstanding attorneys in the Prov- ince." ma. DENNIS careers Mr. Dennis said this measure concerned a most important thing. the inde, -‘ of the Legis- lature. He recalled that a year or two ago the lawyers in the House were instrumental in getting a bill passed, exempting them from the Act in the matter of holding cer- tain offices. Hon. Mr. Campbell: "As Crown counsel.” - Mr. Dennis: "Why were those gentlemen entitled to this consid- eration above any other class who may be members of this House. I don't understand it. You now pur- pose to make several other exemp- tions. One of them is with regard to 'I‘reasury Board members who are doing the extra work performed by purchasing agents. We claimed when in opposition that these pur- chasing agents had nothing to do, and that the salaries paid them were wasted. Were we right then, or are we right now? Up till the last government there was no suoh agents at all. Those are not posi- tions that have been in operation for twenty years or so; they never existed until they were installed by the last. government, and we prom- ised to do ‘away with them. Now they apparently cannot be got rid of except by providing that the work dons by these men he turned over to some other parties. Who did this work under the former Lea Government? No person. It was done by the Governor-in-Council, and it can very well be done again. "Don't misunderstand me," con- tinued Mr. Dennis. "They should receive remuneration for any extra work they have to do, but let us say here today how much we are going to give them. WHY HEM AND HAW ABOUT IT? If they want $500 each, that will be about the salaries of the men that are being fired. If it is worth it. let us give it to them, but why this beat- ing about the rbush. Let us -‘get down tn business, and do business on a buslneu basis. ‘ TAINTS LEGAL MEMBERS “There is to be a lawyer member for Law Clerk and for Clerk of the House. That. I understand, is one of the objects of this legislation. After reading this bill over I can-_ not help but admire it. We have elected a Speaker-a lawyer. We are providing offices for two more. I know there is a gentleman who makes the best clerk that we ever had’ here. ARE THERE ANY 0TH- ER. LAWYERS NOW THAT ARE NOT FIXED UP? "We should be careful of what we do in regard to cutting away any legislation that might affect the independence of Parliament. "Another thing, that these men can do what they like to buy and sell for the Government. Why shouldn't the other members have the same privilege?" Hon. Mr. Allen: "It is not the Executive Council at all that this deals with. It deals entirely with the Treasury Board." "Mature Consideration‘ Needed lino. Thane A. Campbell: "There is something in my hon. friend's contention that the Government should submit the u nts which it purposes to pay. but those are matters which require mature con- sideration and on which the Gov- ernment has not been able to ar- rive at any decision. When the House meets at the regular session all these estimates will be duly passed and the House will have the opportunity of considerinc them and voting the amounts. At est government was sincere. The next spaker, Mr. Kelly, the King's County _ President of the Stevens Club, said that the Stevens party was bound to be a strong factor in the next government, even if it was only the opposition. Mun-s. Ings. Richardson and Johnltcne substantiated the re- marks of the previous speakers and appealed for support of the Stevens movement. , Frns CHARLOTTETOWN the time we are ‘tak- ing such pawns as may be neces- in order to prepare ourselves. I note the hon. member spoke about the priyileges which were given to lawyers and other members and 1 agree that those are matters which may infringe on the independence of a member. but I don't think there is anything in the legisla- tion_which _w_e_have here which does or can infringe on the inde- pendence of any member." ' Mr. Mustard (Third Kings): “There is sonnet that f would suggest to the Opposition-or rath- er to those who are opposing. Why are we legislating in ourselves jobs that were formerly given to out- siders. and would the saving made be anythingworth while?" Premier Lea: “It certainly will.“ Mr: Mustard: “For instance we have farmer members, and wemigiat subsequently have requests that or- dinary farmer members could be appointed road superintendents. etc. I am not opposed to it, but I am just pointing this out." MIL Macrrrurrs- wanuiwo Mr. MacPhce (Second Queensf: "It don't seem to me that it is .worth the bother for the diiferenoe it would make. A Clerk costs mo. If our session is going to be short there is no doubt people would work very much cheaper. It looks a little selfish to me that we should monopolize all the money ourselves. I think we will get a good deal of criticism from our op- ponents. Of course, I supposc we are not supposed to look much to that. but we have u» look politic- ally and I don't know that the“ will be too much saved in this measure. 1t looks to me a‘ little selfish." Premier Lea: ‘Member; will ne- member that the leader of the Lib- eral party has said repeatedly that we must balance our budget and to that end every one must share in the sacrifice. We are all going to sacrifice something and we are starting right with the G-ovemmeih I think the saving will be around $500.. mt. rroorrss orroaes Mr. Hughes (Fifth Kings): “I have certainly no objection to this bill insofar as the Minister of m. ucatlon and Public Health or the members of the Treasury Board are concerned, but I think we are act- ing improperly and on an improper principle when we go so far as to say that an employee of this House may also be a member" of the House. On that ground I am op- posed to the Clerk of the Legisla- tive Assembly or the Law Clerk of the Legislative Assembly being g member of the House." Premier Iea: "Does my hon. friend think, with the assistance we have in the House from the attor- neys, that we need a Law Clerk?" Mr. Hughes: "We shouldn‘t in- fringe on the other principle.” Hon. T. A. Campbell: “These po- sitions are really pretty much the Same as the position of the Speaker of the House. Any ss- sembly or meeting appoints its chairman and its secretary. Sim- ilarly a Legislature appoints a Spqakerland ‘the secretary of any meeting may be a member of the meeting, The Clerk is really the _ secretary of the Legislature.” Mr. Mustard: “ls it, not a fact that from i023 to 1927 there was no Law Clerk in the House." Premier Lea: “There was a Law Clerk then; but it does not mat- ter about that. Mr. Stewart (First Queens): "We would like to know what the duties of a Law Clerk are before we em- ploy one." Hon. Thane A. Campbell: "Qf course we are not proceeding to employ one at the present time. H's dutv is to draft legislation and check it up with existing legisla- tion and see that it fits in properly and does not contravene. or Ls not ultra vires. I have found from ex- perience that the Law Clerk outside of the Legislature is of very little benefit. because he is not in touch with the legislation which has been passed in other years. “THE ONLY PLANK" Mr. Acorn: "I believe. in fact I am sure, that the only plank in the Liberal platform which appealed to the electors in the provincial cam- paign was that in which we pro- mised to make revenue and expen- diture meet.’ , Mr. Hughes: “What in the world was the good or the other planks. then?" Mr. Acorn: "So far as our cam- paign was conoemed they did not count at all. I believe that rnv colleague and myself were clectod 0n this plank and 1 personally pledged myself that if revenue and expenditure did not meet in the next four or five years, I for one would never offer for r-election again, and I am first. last and all the time in favor of any . ‘fiction in the expenditure that will ac- complish that and." The bill was passed without fur- ther discussion. GOLD FROM CANADA (C.P.'By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK. Sept.
